[Freevo-devel] turning off subtitles in movie playing

[Paul S. <pa...@si...>]

Over the weekend someone came by with a CD with .avi and subtitles.

Freevo correctly displayed the subtitles, good technical test succeeded 
however now I want to get rid of them...

So I looked around the 1.5.2 code and found two minor patches that make 
life much more pleasurable.

patch event.py

so the video_events read:

VIDEO_EVENTS = {
     'PLAY'      : PLAY,
     'PAUSE'     : PAUSE,
     'STOP'      : STOP,
     'EXIT'      : STOP,
     'UP'        : PLAYLIST_PREV,
     'DOWN'      : PLAYLIST_NEXT,
     'CH+'       : PLAYLIST_PREV,
     'CH-'       : PLAYLIST_NEXT,
     'LEFT'      : Event(SEEK, arg=-60),
     'RIGHT'     : Event(SEEK, arg=60),
     'REW'       : Event(SEEK, arg=-10),
     'FFWD'      : Event(SEEK, arg=10),
     'MENU'      : MENU,
     'DISPLAY'   : TOGGLE_OSD,
     'SUBTITLE'  : VIDEO_NEXT_SUBTITLE,
     'REC'       : STORE_BOOKMARK,
     '0'         : VIDEO_MANUAL_SEEK
     }

and patch mplayer.py in video/plugins to read:

             if p.eventhandler(event):
                 return True

         if event==VIDEO_NEXT_SUBTITLE:
                 self.app.write('sub_visibility\n')
                 return True

         if event == VIDEO_MANUAL_SEEK:

4 lines gives more usability....
